On a recent work trip to Los Cabos, Mexico, I think I found my new favorite destination and resort…Secrets Marquis Los Cabos! The destination was beautiful – think desert meets ocean paradise – it was so gorgeous! And where do I start about the hotel Secrets Marquis Los Cabos – it was amazing, with huge rooms, the staff and service was off the charts and the food was to die for! Make sure you check out this resort if you come to Cabo – because you will be blown away!
Ok, getting back on topic….the Apple Vacations On The Go App! I am sure many of you have young kids or family members at home that you need to stay in contact with, even if you are on a vacation! Well, this Apple Vacations App is perfect for you! I was a little unsure if the “Traveler Connect” portion of the Apple Vacations On The Go App was going to work. The only reason I was unsure was because I know it’s been tested on the east coast of Mexico, like Cancun & Riviera Maya as well as Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, but I wasn’t sure if it was tested and worked here in Los Cabos, where I was.
Well, it worked perfectly, I was so happy! I could call home as much as I wanted to check on my baby boy, I think I called home too much my husband was starting to get a little irritated as to why I kept calling 4-5 times a day!
I was shocked on how easy the “Traveler Connect” was to use – I am not very tech savvy so I was worried I wouldn’t be able to use it. Boy was I wrong – you just have to make sure the person you are going to text or call has the App Downloaded & you must give them your booking # to sign in with. After that, you both create a profile for each other & make sure you both are “Friends” then you can call or text as much as you want! (A little too much in my case.) Important that you know; You have to be located in a WIFI Area in your hotel to access the Traveler Connect feature. Also, don’t forget, if you purchase this APP you can post all of your vacation photos to Facebook & Twitter and all your friends and family will be jealous of how much fun you are having on YOUR Apple Vacation! Don’t forget with this Apple Vacations App you have access to vital travel info, one touch calling to your Apple Rep, & it even allows you to check your flight status, book excursions, check the weather outside & even get discounted local offers at vendors like Starbucks…..all within this one app!

hotel and an immense lobby full of brilliant chandeliers. The grounds are perfectly landscaped and their cascading waterfalls made a peaceful setting. The junior-suite rooms were spacious with turn down service and flower petals in the bed/bathroom every night. Other top amenities include 24-hour all-inclusive and exchange privileges with the other RIU Resorts in Riviera Maya, which we took advantage of for breakfast and lunch. They have a large court yard and every night there was entertainment with bands, singers and dancers, whom were awesome I might add. I truly felt like I was in a king’s palace because the scenery is breathtaking. Everything was close and not a lot of walking to get from one area to another. The Theater across from the courtyard had different shows every night from Las Vegas type shows to Magic acts. The staff was friendly, always cheerful, and there to accommodate you. I loved their buffet restaurant for breakfast,
lunch, or dinner. They had such a display of foods from seafood dishes to roasts of all kinds (such as duck, which is one of my favorites and cooked to perfection). The chefs can cook your steak/poultry to your liking, which is a nice touch. Their gourmet restaurants, an Asian, Brazilian, Krystal Fusion, El Patio, were all very good. My favorite was El Patio, serving steaks and seafood specialties, and located on the beach. The lobby bar with the pianist was exceptional – playing various types of classical music to rock n roll pieces. Top shelf liquor served throughout, mini-bar stocked daily, and with liquor dispensers on the wall, no one should go thirsty. 2 Pools, 1 with a swim-up bar and daily activities, and the other pool for a less active, quiet setting. And they have a pool bar too!


I felt like we were “celebrities”, as we became friendly with the various workers and entertainment staff at the 
Secrets is adults only. Another great nice option is 
The resort is smaller and manageable, but there is still so much to do. We played pool games and did water aerobics during the day (they even let me teach a few days), and we almost won the newlywed game one night! We met many couples at the resort and all had a fun time together.
